Background Atrial fibrillation (AF) is an important cause of stroke. Given the morbidity and
mortality associated with stroke, the risk stratification of patients based on left atrial …

This article reports on recent research findings into the factors that influence the detectability
performance of different systems of computed tomography (CT) scanners. These systems …

Introduction Observer variability can influence the assessment of CT coronary angiography
(CTCA) and the subsequent diagnosis of angina pectoris due to coronary heart disease …

Although invasive coronary angiography has been the gold standard for evaluating coronary
artery disease (CAD), it should not be routinely performed as an initial test to assess CAD in …

OBJECTIVE. The purposes of this study were to determine organ and effective doses and to
estimate the risk of exposure-induced cancer death (REID) associated with coronary CT …

Objectives To determine the accuracy of 320-row multidetector coronary computed
tomography angiography (M320-CCTA) to detect functional stenoses using fractional flow …

Purpose To retrospectively assess the value of computed tomographic (CT) bronchial
arteriography (BA) with 320-row multidetector CT in the management of patients with …

The 320-detector row computed tomography (CT) system, ie, the area detector CT (ADCT),
can perform helical scanning with detector configurations of 4-, 16-, 32-, 64-, 80-, 100-, and …

The present study compares three different multidetector CT (MDCT) scanners for routine
brain imaging in terms of image quality and radiation doses. The volume CT dose index …

BACKGROUND There is evolving role of computed tomography coronary angiography
(CTCA) in non-invasive evaluation of coronary artery abnormalities in children with …
